- First Dragon By Susan Gourley
About First Dragon By Susan Gourley:The land of Morbunda thought the dragons had all died in the long ago war that almost destroyed mankind. But one is reborn and has lived among humans for the first fourteen years of his life, unknowing of his true nature. A new war has erupted, a vicious army from the north rolling south to capture all the lands and execute the nobles who have led their people back from the brink of extinction.
Kerik, the only dragon remaining, must deny his arrogant, selfish nature at the same time he uses his other dragon gifts to defend the only home he has ever known.
Lady Lyla Logan dreamed of marrying her childhood friend, Kerik, when they’d grown up. Her dreams shattered when they discovered his dragon heritage and her own magic awakened. With her hopes for the future crushed, all that is left to Lyla is the war and protecting her people from the northern fanatics.
But the enemy is more than Lyla and Kerik could guess. As one horrific truth after another is exposed, they fear this newest war is only a continuation of the old one.
The innocent people of Morbunda need Kerik and Lyla to work together if they are to survive as anything other than slaves. Nature seems against their alliance as Kerik is of earth and fire while Lyla’s magic speaks to the rain and the elements of the air. They’ll need all the power of their wills to turn back their enemies before destroying each other.
